Start by pointing your index finger at your chest to sign "I". Next, use the same index finger to touch the side of your nose. Twist your finger outward and away from your face to sign "bored". Make sure your facial expression matches the feeling of being bored by looking unenthusiastic or tired.
Point to your chest for "I", sign "bored" with a dull facial expression, and then sign "home" by bringing a pinched 'O' handshape from your chin to your cheek.

No, you do not! ASL does not typically use 'to be' verbs like 'am', 'is', or 'are'. You simply sign 'I' and then 'bored' to convey the entire meaning of the English sentence.
No, 'bored' is strictly a one-handed sign. You should use your dominant hand's index finger to touch the side of your nose and twist it outward.
It is incredibly important! In ASL, facial expressions act like your tone of voice. If you sign 'I am bored' with a neutral or happy face, it won't make sense to the person watching. You need to look genuinely uninterested or tired.
